A. 
At least two weeks prior to the start of construction, the applicant shall notify the Borough Engineer, in writing, with a copy to the Borough Clerk and Secretary of the Planning Board, of the date when construction will begin so that a preconstruction conference can be held and inspections may be conducted by the Borough Engineer. If, during installation of any required improvements, the developer fails to meet specification requirements or to correct unacceptable work, the Borough Engineer shall notify the developer verbally, confirmed in writing by certified mail, return receipt requested, of the developers failure to comply. If, within 10 days of the date of receipt of said notice, the developer fails to perform in accordance with the Borough Engineers directions, the Borough Engineer shall notify the governing body, which in turn shall cause the issuance of a stop-work order on further construction and take such remedial action as the circumstances require.

Any improvements installed and not inspected by the office of the Borough Engineer will not be accepted into the Borough road improvement system.

A change in contractor(s) will require a new preconstruction conference.

The applicant/developer shall provide and file with the Borough one set of as-built improvement plans and profiles on Mylar showing actual construction as approved prior to the initial acceptance of the work and to release of any maintenance guaranties.

Upon certification by the Borough Engineer that said installation is complete, building permits shall be authorized.
